Cooktop cleaning (cont’d)

DO NOT use the following on the cooktop:

Do not use abrasive cleaners and scouring pads, such as metal and some nylon pads. They may scratch the cooktop, making it more difficult to clean.

Do not use harsh cleaners, such as chlorine bleach, ammonia or oven cleaners, as they may etch or discolor the cooktop.

Do not use dirty sponges, cloths or paper towels, as they can leave soil or lint on the cooktop which can burn and cause discoloration.

Aluminum foil and oven liners

WARNING

Protective liners—Do not use aluminum foil to line the oven bottom. Only use aluminum foil as recommended in this manual. Improper installation of these liners may result in risk of electric shock, or fire.

Using a liner in the oven will restrict the heat and air flow needed to obtain the best possible cooking results for any oven, including the warmer drawer (some models).

Do not use oven bottom liners or use aluminum foil to cover the oven bottom or any oven racks.

During self-clean the oven temperature can become hot enough to melt aluminum cooking utensils or aluminum foil which could result in damage to the oven interior porcelain finish.
